Nothing really, I haven't found anything I don't like.

Managed DNS with failover for high-availability web applications
Reviewed on 2019/05/16
Pros
I use Constellix DNS to enable DNS failover on critical domains. Any one set of infrastructure, be it a physical datacenter or cloud provider, can fail. For critical web applications, you need to have an independent system that is capable of monitoring your primary infrastructure, detecting failure, and switching to an independent secondary system. Constellix has proven to be reliable, easy enough to use, and affordable.
Cons
It costs more than free DNS options, so I only use Constellix to manage domains for mission-critical systems. The user interface is pretty good, but some aspects could be improved-for example, you have to log into the "Sonar" monitoring interface separately from the DNS site, and the support site requires completely different credentials. Also, the notification of changes to be committed often doesn't update.

Handles DNS
Reviewed on 2019/05/16
Pros
Constellix does what we need. It offers multiple account managers with multi-factor options.
Cons
The login screen for 2FA is not intuitive.
When you first log in, it takes 3 clicks to get into your last-used domain.

DNS made even easier

I needed an advanced DNS solution for a new SAAS product offering. DNS Made Easy is fine, but Constellix takes that platform to a higher level. I wasn't sure it would be right for me since my needs are less complex than many, but I was pleasantly surprised that this product scales from zero to hundreds or even thousands of domains. The transaction-based DNS editor is a lifesaver in case I mess up a change, and being able to stage all the changes and commit them all at once keeps everything tidy and prevents inconsistent DNS records. The Sonar site monitoring came in handy for a recent outage at a local Tier 1 provider and I took the opportunity to set up failover DNS, which was straightforward and worked as promised. 10/10 and highly recommended.
Pros
Extremely powerful, extremely fast, and extremely reliable DNS provider that scales from one domain to hundreds, including custom failover/monitoring, helpful interface, reasonable pricing determined based on actual usage, and (critical) a transaction-based DNS editor with staging of changes plus commit and rollback.
Cons
At times, a steep learning curve and a somewhat over-simplified interface that belies the complexity under the hood. Documentation is not always linked from each screen, requiring a separate search of the company's documentation.

We rely on Constellix heavily and they know that a lot of people are depending on them. It's very clear in their service models and how they've weathered all the bad stuff happening out there in the Cybersecurity sphere. They stay on top of the technology and it's appreciated!
Pros
Constellix continues to build some of the best easy to use services for a company of our size. We serve dozens of clients and depend upon Constellix to help us protect and serve them. Specifically we depend upon the Sonar services. The interfaces are very straightforward and easy to use. The pricing is fair and I have enough control that I can set my own service levels to manage my budget.
Cons
The simplicity of the service belies how much complexity is under the hood. There must be 10,000 lines of code underneath the "go" button. In an effort to make it simple I think it's missing a few advanced features that could REALLY super-power the Sonar Service.
